About Blakely

Blakely Adams is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people navigate stressful life changes and identity questions. She emphasizes strengths and personal values so clients can find clearer direction and feel more like themselves. She draws on 12 years of social work experience to guide practical, goal-oriented sessions.

Conversations focus on what matters to each person and on small, workable steps that fit day-to-day life. This often includes looking at relationship patterns, stress and anxiety, grief, or struggles with self-esteem and identity.

Background and approach

Her approach blends solution-focused work with tools from narrative and existential perspectives. That means she helps people tell their story in a way that reveals options, and she asks direct questions about meaning, choice, and values. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are also used when managing strong emotions or impulsive behavior.

Clients commonly bring concerns such as depression, ADHD, addiction, parenting strain, career transitions, or trauma and abuse. Blakely also supports clients facing LGBTQ-related challenges, gender dysphoria, fertility struggles, caregiver stress, and compassion fatigue. Sessions aim to be collaborative and straightforward.

The process centers on identifying strengths, setting realistic goals, and practicing new skills between meetings. Blakely works from Kansas and meets with people in English via online formats.

Online support

How Blakely's approaches work online

Blakely uses Existential Therapy to help people name what matters to them and to face big questions about purpose, identity, and choice. This approach is useful when someone feels empty, stuck, or unsure about core values. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive behavior; it can be helpful for anxiety, anger, and self-regulation challenges. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people carry about themselves and helps reframe those stories to reveal strengths and new possibilities.

Deciding on an approach is a team effort. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked before. Together they shape a plan that may mix techniques from different approaches so sessions stay practical and personally meaningful.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into real life. Video works well for face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, shorter check-ins suit chat, and messaging lets people share between sessions. These options give flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels while keeping the focus on progress and usable skills.
